They have lived alone since their parents’ untimely death. Except they are not entirely alone – for they share the house with A spiritual force known only as The Lodgers. These forces have now become a permanent fixture in the basement of the property and have set some very strict rules for the twins which they expect to be followed.The Movie features a host of Irish talent both behind and in front of the camera with names such as Irish comedian Deirdre O’Kane, and Actors Moe Dunford and Roisin Murphy as well as Award winning director Brian O’Malley. The Lodgers is the perfect post card example of what we have to offer here in Ireland both talent and tourism wise.
